Daniel Haroush

Daniel was an 11th grader at the military academy affiliated with Haifa’s Reali High School, and had finished classes early because most of his schoolmates had gone on a school trip to Poland. He had gone downtown to pick up forms for driver’s education classes and was on his way back to school when the terrorist struck.

His sister Ronit related how their parents had just last week signed permission forms for Daniel to join the army upon his enlistment next year, because he planned on a military career. “He wanted to take the pilot’s course. That was his dream, and he would have made it,” said Ronit. He was outstanding in everything he did, ever since he was little. This summer he was supposed to take a parachuting course.”

Daniel Haroush was buried in Safed. He is survived by his parents, Moni and Tzippi, and three older sisters.
